Someone confirmed what I thought :D

When will be the next challenge start? Not eager to participate, just eager to see more soaps :)

Is it the finger?:rolleyes:

Wow, this is the first time I am hearing about soap dough. Will look into it. So, how do you use soap dough, like bath bombs?

It is added to compensate the water loss from melting. It will also reduce the chance of glycerine dew, when it got enough water in the soap, it wont attract more water from air.

Well, when I make M&P I add 2% water while melting it, so, it wont be too thick when I have to pour, it prevents the fast thickening and the layer forming on top. I never did a salt soap, but, suspended pumice, coffee grounds and walnut powder. I got both sides smooth. I add the suspending...

Where I live, Pork is literally hard to find meat.

Thank you Todd for explaining it cleary :)

Thank you @Todd Ziegler What I meant was, if I am making honey and milk soap, and I use heating and insulation will it overheat? So, if the room temperature is high, will it affect gelling?

Exactly the thread I needed. My question is if the room temperature is like 90+ degrees, would the soap go gelling without heating pad, with just towel insulation? And if I dont have a heating pad, would normal hot water pack work? And I also read if the recipe contains honey, no need to use...

Thank you guys for helping me to choose the blender. I guess I will buy the stainless steel one. :)

I dont think they will have it, Pork is not a common meat we use. 70% people here are vegetarians and even some state have bans in processing certain meats. So, getting animal fats will be tricky. True, I dont even know where to get it, thats why I checked amazon.

Thank you @senaraj :) I will check it out.

CP Newbie here. I dont own a stick blender, since I was making M&P until now. So, I was trying to buy a stick blender, and I noticed there are two types. Completely stainsless steel ones and ones with full plastic body and only stainless steel blades. I am attaching pics, so, you can understand...

We dont get lard here, at least I dont know where to get it. I checked amazon, its sooooooooooo expensive :rolleyes:. Same goes for Tallow.

@Todd Ziegler Thank you for confirming. We dont get VCS here, thats why I was trying to make my own. Ok, Thank you.

Good luck, I just made my first CP 2 days ago.

Wow, so, there is two types of VCS? So, the recipe you shared is for CP?

Oh ok got it, time to invest in a handblender. Ok, I will keep it away from sunlight. Thank you @AliOop Ah, thats a new thing to learn. Thank you @Nibiru2020 Thank you @TheGecko. We dont have dollar shops in India. For now, I thought I will stick with stainless steel. It was a mistake, I...

Even some colorful buttons would do, if you have them. I just uploaded a pic.
